Well, I just purchased this device and came here after that to look at what we had and I'm disgusted.
And there are several reasons for that, being:
1 - Locked Bootloader...
2 - This forum seems somewhat abandoned, which leads it to be somewhat disorganized.
EdiT:
Thanks to our friend repey6 > http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=5704037
TWRP 2.8.7.0 is now included, and it works just ok, with all functionality.
I strongly recommend you to use it instead of any other recovery. Just make sure to backup your ROM again after installing it, as CWM or Carliv backups won't work in TWRP.
I replaced the old TWRP included in the attachments with the new one provided by repey6, but the installation process remains the same.
Plus, this was not created by me and it's mad old (2014). But still it works better than the Carliv Recovery we have available here...
So Let's go. The proccess is the same for both, just choose the recovery image you want in the end of the topic.
(almost forgot to say that if your phone bricks it's you responsibility, I tested it in mine and it is working fine)
STEPS:
STEP1- Root your phone (if it's not rooted yet).
To root your phone you'll need to:
a-Download the framaroot APK provided in the attachments
b-Install it then click in the Boromir option and the su binary will be installed.
c-Download SuperSU from google play store.
That's all, simple like that.
STEP2- Check your bootloader's S1 Version
a-Open your dialer and input *#*#7378423#*#* , then go to Service Info>Software Info> S1 Boot Version.
b- Check if yours is 2.14.J.2.6 or 2.14.J.2.13 or 2.14.J.2.16 . If yours is one of these go ahead, it should work just fine and you can proceed.
If yours is 2.14.J.0.68 do not proceed, as it will 100% brick your phone.
c- My phone has S1 Boot Version 2.14.J.1.15 and in spite of the developer having not mentioned anything about it, I risked it all and my phone flashed the recovery normally, so if your version is also 2.14.J.1.15, it should work just fine and you can proceed.
STEP3 - Install the recovery
NOW, BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL HERE, OTHERWISE YOU WILL HARD BRICK YOUR PHONE:
a-Download the mobileuncle.apk file provided in the attachments and install it.
b-Download the twrp_xperia_C.img file provided below and put it in your internal memory (not on the external). Rename it to recovery.img, otherwise mobile uncle won't see it.
Now, here's the part you have to mind, so you won't brick your phone.
Mobile uncle can install a recovery using one of two methods. One is by installing the image from your internal memory (which we'll be doing). Other is installing it from the internet.
Now, YOU DON'T WANT to install a recovery from the internet, as mobile uncle doesn't provide any image for your device. So if you flash any of these recoveries, you'll never be able to make your phone boot again.
See in the image below and you'll get what I mean:

"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
c - So, before proceeding TURN OFF YOUR WIFI AND DATA CONNECTIONS so that mobile uncle won't show any recovery from internet
d-Open mobile uncle.
e-Grant Super User
f-Press "Recovery Update"
g- With wifi turned off, you'll see only your recovery in the screen
h- Click it, the file size of the file I'm posting must be around 6MB ( 6210KB for CWM), if it's different cancel and download file again.
i- press ok and restart.
DONE
:good:
EDIT:
I just noticed that after flashing the recovery you might get your phone stuck in the SONY logo after it.
In fact it happened to me, but just once.
If that happens don't panick. Recove the cover of your phone and besides the SIM-2 slot you'll see a tiny role with the word "reset". Insert a needle in there and your phone will restart normally.

It should work in both, I'm using a recovery for C2305 in my C2304.
Just don't try flashing a C2305 ROM on your C2304. It will not hardbrick your phonw, but the SIM cards will not work and you will get a mad functioning phones.
Some custom ROM's based on stock firmware work in both though.
Hey anyone tried for xc 2305???
So my S1 bootloader version is: 2.14.J.0.68. Is it for sure there is nothing that can be done?

Sorry for the late reply! Haven't been able to test this until recently due to an issue getting my PC to work properly with my phone. Anyway, I would like to confirm that I was able to flash this on my Xperia C2305 that had S1 Boot Version 2.14.J.0.68. The photo below is proof of CWM running on my Xperia C2305:
Things you will need:
WMShua SuperFlash: http://soft.flushrom.com/WMShuaSetup.exe (after installing, you can change the language to English by renaming Program Files/wmshua/language to Program Files/wmshua/language_x)
Xperia C 16.0.B.2.16 FTF: C2305_16.0.B.2.16_TacoNikky.ftf or C2305_16.0.B.2.16_Congngheviet.ftf (pick one; I used TacoNikky's version)
Procedure:
1. Open WMShua, then click on Flash (not Super Flash). Browse to the FTF file you downloaded. You can choose to backup system before flash (I unchecked it on mine). Follow the screenshot below for guidance:
2. Turn off your phone. Next, hold down the Vol- (volume down) button on your phone. While holding down, plug in the micro USB cable. The LED will flash red. When it changes to green, release the Vol- button. WMShua should automatically try to install the needed drivers. After installing drivers, it will begin the flashing process. If your phone turns on instead, simply unplug it from the USB, turn it off, then try again.
The flash process may take a long time (it took 30+ minutes for me), and sometimes it may look like it hanged, but it's actually working. Just be patient. Once it reaches 100%, your phone will automatically boot up. Check your S1 Boot Version—it should now be 2.14.J.2.16. You may find that you've lost root, so you will need to root it again (I use KingoRoot). After rooting, follow the instructions on the first post to install CWM or TWRP. Good luck!

I´m looking forward to try your rooting method since i only want to get rid of the three annoying buttons at the buttom, but is there anyone who could tell me how to do a BACKUP in case something goes wrong and i want to get my phone into its original form? there are a lot of threads about it, i know, but i didnt understand them. could one of you please tell me how to? THANKS :good:
Still can not root it.
My friend thanks for your time.
But i still can not root my phone. I had try deferent computers but nothing. Is it possible to find some other drivers? Because at the procedure i am hearing two times the connection and disconnection of the USB. (At Xp and Win 7). I made all the steps as you describe. I believe that is a driver problem but i do not know how to resolve it. Any suggestions? Thanks again for your time.:good:

Good night to all, sorry for opening this old thread but I'm in a biggest problem(not for you guys). Explain the problem:
I want to root my phone, a Hero H2000+, following this tutorial and others. When root is OK I try to backup the system with CWM Recovery but the backup doesn't make full. The backup always stop in the Backup system... and this doesn't continue. Because this doesn't continues I restore defaults in the Android system, but when the phone reboots it enter into recovery mode(CMW Recovery) and then "Formatting /data" and "Formatting /cache" and then??? It doesn't reboot, this stay here. On this stage I was bloked but following this tutorial my phone now reboots when enter to CWM Recovery and reboot and reboot. Fuc**** loops!!! What can I do to revive the phone???!!
The CWM Recovery I used is ClockworkMod 6.0.2.8 with Scatter and flashed with SPFlash Tool v3.1222.00.
Thanks a lot for the replies
Update: I flash again with another ROM I downloaded from a China page and the phone boots OK. If someone wants the ROM stock, please send me a MP and I will give you the download link.

I haven't bought the phone yet but I did some research and found 2 methods but none on english :S
Hungarian - http://data.hu/get/6493358/Alcetel_OT_6030D_Root_HowTo.pdf
German - http://www.android-hilfe.de/5684068-post10.html
I tryed to translate the German text via Google, here it goes...
-Download first the files
CWM Recovery 6030D
Cwm Recovery 6.0.2.8 Neu!! Optional
MTK Droid & Tools 2.44 (without warez)
TWRP Recovery 2.4.4.0
VCOM Drivers
SpFlashtool
************************************************** ************************************************** *
MobileUncle Tools
Mobile Uncle Tools 2.8.0
-So you can very easy to flash the patched recovery
Here we go:
-Idol connected on the PC (USB debug mode must be active) and install drivers if needed
-(Must be quick startup disabled) SPFlash run tools, Scatter file and then load cwm recovery to download press idol off
-Idol on the Pc connected (the drivers are installed automatically)
-The SPflashTools will now flash the Cwm recovery. If a green circle appears everything went well.
-Unplug the cable, run MTKDroidTools.
-Switch on with Power & Volume + and simultaneously connect the smartphone to the PC
-Once this is recognized (as comic characters will appear, but everything is ok), go to "root, backup, recovery and super user click on it that can be installed.
-The display during the root process remains dark all the time with me. So do not panic
-Unplug the cable, wait a minute and long press on the power button until the logo appears idol
-I had to update suspersu (after first boot) ... but is normal.
-You can also make a backup, although that will not be complete. Important is the boot.img and recovery.img are here.
-caution: After a reboot the CWM recovery is overwritten by the stock recovery. Personally, I would leave it there so far is no 100% functional recovery
The idol is now rooted
The CWM and TWRP recovery is not 100% functional. The Custpack partitions get no support.
edit
With Mtk Droid Root Tools & backup works fine)
Hope I helped Cant wait to get the phone, just 20 days to go...
What are your impressions about the phone?
Edit: Forgot to say, this is for 6030D but it will maybe work on the other two models... Hopefully

Please check the scatter file maybe it's incorrect. Try re-creating it once again. The Cusotm Recovery has to be smaller or equal than the recovery partition size in the scatter file.
Finallx got the phone! It's so cool! Love the slim box and it's sooo fast! Anyway, i read something about the phone losing the DRM licence after root. Now, what does this DRM licence do and can we use this phone normally without it? As much as i got it, this has something to do with the licences for the apps...

After losing DRM, you can lose GSM signal all the way, I do not want to play with it...
@H377
Are we losing DRM after rooting?
Is that tutorial for 6030X also?
Does stock recovery owerwrite custom cwm (which we need to install) after rooting/rebooting?
Hi,
I still can use all the features on the phone after root, so I'm not quite sure if we loose anything. Still can play videos, MP3s, so all the apps work. Haven't noticed anything yet.
I think you can root the 6030X also with this procedure just be sure that you use your own scatter file extracted from your own phone. Then you cannot really mess anything up.
If you flash the stock recovery to the phone after rooting it will definitely overwrite the custom one. So normally it doesn't overwrite it automatically only if you manually flash it.

So I need to download stock recovery with flash tool, to flash after rooting?
Also, cwm recovery in tutorial is good, no need to mod any other recovery, just to use scatter which I made with MTK?

It depends on:
If you have rooted the phone you can leave the custom CWM on it no need to reflash the stock recovery. But if you want to you can flash the stock back. It's all up to you.
I'm asking because I do not need cwm for now, just need root and everything else to be stock... Thanks, I will try this method...
Well, as you know, G610-U00 emotion UI (Official Stock firmware) is annoying, lets try to change the overall UI completely from boring Chinese UI into popular phones' UI.
Before we go, back up everything you need (Apps, Contacts, etc...)
Your phone bootloader must be unlocked to do these processes!!!!
1.Download and install VRoot ENGLISH VERSION on PC and root Your G610-U00 first. (Skip this step if you have already rooted your phone)
2.Download and install Mobile Uncle Tools on your phone.
3.Download TWRP English recovery for G610-U00 first and put it in SD card.
4.Download Rom below that you want to install and put it in SD card.
5.Open Mobile Uncle Tools and "Allow" root Permission and choose "Recovery Update" in Mobile Uncle Tools and then
choose "ydss-g610-u00-twrp-recovery-en-v2.0".
6.Mobile Uncle Tools will show you a message "Reboot into Recovery?" Choose "Yes".
You can also go to recovery mode this way
(1)Power off your phone
(2)Press and "HOLD" volume up button and then power button until you get into RECOVERY MODE.
7.In the TWRP recovery,
(1)Choose "Wipe"
(2)Choose "Advance Wipe"
(3)Choose Dalvik Cache, Cache, Data, System
(4)Pull the Slider below from the left to the right. Now your Phone is clean and ready to install new ROM
(5)Go Back to the menu with Back Key
(6)Choose the button "Install"
(7)Choose the ROM (zip) you have downloaded
(8)Pull the Slider below from the left to the right to install the zip and wait for the installation process
(9)After Installation process choose "Reboot"
ENJOY YOUR NEW ROM!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note (Optional) : For better experience, when you want to download, you should use Chrome Browser to translate pages because the download pages are written in Chinese. If you don't have Chrome Browser, just see the image at the end of the post how to download from.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Files to download
G610-U00 custom ROMS(All Roms Have Root Access)
Edit : Google drive link for those who can't access Baidu (by a request).
Google App Installer for no google app included roms(Installing using apk, Need root access)
DEFAULT LANGUAGE IS CHINESE, AFTER BOOT UP, GO TO SETTING>LANGUAGE AND INPUT>LANGUAGE>CHANGE TO ENGLISH.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In any case, if you want to go back to official stock firmware,
(1) Download and flash it in TWRP RECOVERY (I'm not sure it would work in CWM but has 70% success rate )
(Without flashing this stock recovery in TWRP, you won't able to flash Official Firmware).
(2)Download extract the downloaded zip and copy the "dload" folder to SD card.
(3)Power off the phone and Press and Hold "Volume Up + Volume Down and Power Button" until you see the install processing cmd lines on your phone. Wait for the process and the phone will reboot automatically after update finish.
Now you are on the official stock firmware.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notice : YOUR PHONE MIGHT TAKE 10 TO 15 MINUTES TO FINISH BOOT AFTER "FLASHING (INSTALLING) NEW CUSTOM ROM" OR "INSTALLING OFFICIAL STOCK FIRMWARE". IF IT WOULD TAKE LONG MORE THAN 15 MINUTES, JUST PULL THE BATTERY AND BOOT AGAIN. THIS COULD SOLVE THE PROBLEM OF TAKING LONG TO BOOT.
***IMPORTANCE*** : FROM PHONE SETTINGS, NEVER DO "FACTORY DATA RESET" OR NEVER "UNMOUNT" "INTERNAL SD CARD OR INTERNAL STORAGE" WHILE YOU ARE ON "CUSTOM ROMS". IT WILL LEAD TO BOOTLOOP. IF YOU WANT TO DO FACTORY DATA REST GO TO TWRP RECOVERY AND CHOOSE WIPE, PULL SLIDER TO DO FACTORY RESET. IF YOU EXPERIENCE THIS PROBLEM, SEE ABOVE METHOD "GOING BACK TO STOCK FIRMWARE" AND INSTALL CUSTOM ROM PROCESS AGAIN.
I am not responsible for any damage to your phone caused by following this method. I have tested this method and it is working smoothly for me. Be sure to do precisely as my instructions and I am pretty sure this will work 100%. Good Day to you.

BLU Studio G D790Q MegaThread
MT6580 Android 6.0

This phone is extremely hard to find reference of. The D790Q is only available (to my knowledge) in Best Buy stores. Their site here even says it runs KitKat.

RECOVERY and STOCK FIRMWARE
Here is the link to the Stock Firmware that you can flash with SP Flash tools if something goes wrong.
Thanks to AndroidMediatekRecoveryDevelopment, we have a recovery for our device! CTR 6.6 to be exact. It is available here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=673368273298930861
How to Root
1) Download the latest SuperSU zip from http://www.supersu.com and move to external SD card
2) Flash Recovery using SP Flash Tools
3) Boot into Recovery immediately by holding Power and Volume up button on phone (IMPORTANT! Otherwise the phone will replace the custom recovery with the stock recovery)
4) Install the SuperSu zip
5) Reboot

do I have to make a scatter file to flash the recovery? and not use any other scatter file? by the way I am trying to root my blu studio G d790q so I could use a ram extender. I tried to use a scatter file from a stock rom I downloaded from this http://www.needrom.com/download/blu-studio-g-d790q/
--Basically this is what I have done--
-> launched SP tools
-> clicked `choose scatter file` (MT6580_Android_scatter.txt)
-> unchecked everything except recovery and browsed to my downloaded ctr-6.6-d790q.img
-> click download
-> connected my powered off device and while the bar below seems to be 100 it was color red and it says something have changed and I should download a file which I wasn't able to note down
-> I tried pressing down volume + power but it showed me `Factory mode` I guess its not the ctr one so I just chose `reboot`
-> found my date changed to `January 1` after reboot but I fixed it by just calibrating 'automatic time zone' and everything is good again.
Just need some clarification on flashing this recovery so I can root it properly thanks for the help! Cheers!
one more thing isn't it volume up + power to boot to recovery?

Did you make sure to plug in the phone with the battery taken out?
I did remove battery,
This time I also installed unsigned drivers for mtk for windows 10 64bit , also rebooted PC on startup to make it accept unsigned drivers (option 7) redo the process but now it took a bit of time to get that bar at 100 but still red it came up with a failed error
here are the two screenshots for each failed attempt
Upon further playing with it and being patient, i think it looks like somethings wrong with my current stock rom in a way that it is different from the stock scatter file which I am using, I tried downloading mtk droid tools and it showed me this
any ideas?

Sorry for the late reply,
V22 is the stock ROM the D790Q ships with. Unfortunately, the only stock ROM is V16. That may be the issue why you cannot flash the recovery, you have to format all and download the whole V16 stock ROM.
For some reason, you cannot update to V22 from V16 so I was not able to test the recovery on V22.

First off these guys got you backwards that's why your stuff doesn't work.. On BLU its VOL UP to enter recovery.. not VOL DOWN as mr qinagong suggests.
As you can see from your screenshot it says format+download.. Choose the other option and it will work. If SP doesn't work on download choose DLOAD+FORMAT, if it doesn't work on that. choose the opposite. Also battery should be IN ! Ignore the people who say it should be out. Turn off phone, begin download or download + format and wait a second or two and then insert USB cable.

Wow, I didn't think people actually read this thread
You're right on the volume button part. I will change that. I've always removed the battery, plugged in the usb, and reinserted the battery and it has worked for me.

Ops Stock Rom link is a paid membership site $3 per month. I managed to find a mirror for D790Q 6.0 stock. I know its an old thread but just in case anyone needs this and gets stuck because of OPS suggestive subscription link.

Hi Guys,
I'm super new to the whole topic and am only doing this because I have a spare smartphone and wanted to learn something.
The bootloader is unlocked.
The USB drivers are installed on the PC.
USB Debugging is turned on.
Smartphone states "Orange State [...]" while booting.
Then I tried to extract the boot.img via the "MTK Droid Root & Tools v2.5.3" to flash this later with Magisk. But here I got the following error message:
Spoiler: MTK Error
The same messages have been there before I did anything on the smartphone for the first time.
From DE to ENG:
--->>> Connect to device <<<---
--- ERROR: --- TotalBytesPerChunk Not Found. Set default Page/Spare=2048/64 !!!--- unknown ROM structure, backup NOT possible!ATTENTION! a file (/system/recovery-from-boot.p) which restores the stock recovery in case of normal phone startup was found!
So I flashed a stock rom here from

Umidigi A7 Pro Stock Firmware ROM (Flash File)
Download Official Umidigi A7 Pro Firmware (original flash file) without any password for Free. We also provide the Stock Rom for other Umidigi devices.
xdafirmware.com
to the phone via the SP Flash Tool (because I did something that enabled the first Boot Loop), the phone restarts in factory state succesfully, I set it up once and then installed Magisk, and using Magisk patched the boot.img of the from I downloaded.
However, when I now want to flash it via the flash tool, this error message appears:
Spoiler: Flash Tool Error
And suddenly I am in boot loop. As soon as I flash the original boot.img, the phone starts as usual.
I have also tried the whole thing via TWRP, and as soon as I install Magisk.zip via the TWRP the boot loop angers me again. Also MTK still shows the same error.
Spoiler: I have followed the following instructions:

I'm happy about anything that helps me out getting this phone rooted
Sorry my friend that noone has yet to have replied to your inquiry here. Ill do my best to give you some of the knowledge I have when it comes to setting you in the right direction without failure next time. Today and for the last month or so I have been working hard with the Umidigi a7 pro 64gb. To be clear are you making sure to flash the magisk zip file of the boot.img file that you saved from the stock firmware. You shouldn't have to fiddle around with to many of the settings just when you do flash the patched file you have to make sure to uncheck everything other then boot.img patched file. I am very new to this as well and honestly it's a tricky process to get it ever done right on your first attempt. You seem to have and know enough knowledge on this topic. MTK is a finnacky processor. I myself have yet to get this device fully rooted yet. The issue I myself have is my PC is not properly updating the MTK and other drivers to make the magic happen which I think I am just going to have to get my other dell going again to try on a fresh PC that I just set up again for this exact thing. To my most recent knowledge though when it comes to the Umidigi a7 pro you have to follow each and every step closely and to a exact precise t or the whole operation will fail every time you try. Are you using your micro SD card to it's full potential and making sure that you saved the patched file properly. You also have to watch for corrupt files when it comes to this kind of thing. But you know enough to just trust the pages you are downloading your files from and make sure everything is signed and legit. Another thing is what seemed to help me is removing SP flash tool completely from my PC. Then re downloading it and starting from scratch by flashing your stock scatter file and I find when flashing hold the power button when it starts for just a few seconds only some people think to keep holding the power button through the entire flash process but to my knowledge what has worked from a noobs perspective is hold power for just a few seconds until the full load of the red bar comes and then when it goes away you can let go of power button and it will continue on with the rest of the manual installment process. There are a lot of high technical highs and lowes when it comes to what you can do here and from the info I've gotten MTK devices weren't really meant to be able to withstand even being remotely compatible devices for root. Honestly let me know how things are going lately for you as I know this post is a bit old. I myself have came close to periodically throwing this phone as far out of the window as it can reach, I'm not a quitter by any means and still today and even right now m working on that to try to help others in any way i possibly can and today I will get this device into full root accesss.
